Banish hopes of shimmering ponies or Robert Redford. This is a crunchy ­Australian revenge flick about a ­grizzled, self-harming pest-controller called Christian (Peter Marshall) tracking down, torturing and killing the men he holds responsible for the death of his daughter, found drowned in vomit after a porn shoot goes awry. Not a man you'd want to hitch a lift with, but that's what baby-faced teen Alice (Caroline Marohasy) does. "Smells like barbecue in here," she chirps, hopping into his lorry, unaware he's just burned a man to death. Steven Kastrissios paints a bleak, Hopper-ish picture of modern Oz, all stubble and sweat. But it's a shame he can't staunch the emotions a ­little more: the relentless violence gets wearing, but so do the maudlin flashbacks to when Christian's girl was just a tot. Biblical parallels are laid on with crowbar ­delicacy. Still, the ingenuity of Christian's methods of murder (bicycle pump, fish hooks, wrench) is good ­testimony to the benefits of a fully stocked tool box.
